NO WORK LIFE BALANCE

I LOVED reading all of the Mothers Day posts and seeing all the photos on Insta. Neither of ours mum's live in Melbourne so we didn't have any Mothers Day Celebrations as such.

My life recently has been work and gym.
Not that exciting hence the no blogging action.


Work has been my oxgyen recently and I really hate it. Working before work in the morning and then again before and after gym its just been crazy but on the plus side there will be some huge rewards so I just need to hang in there but my god I am feeling the side affects ... No Sleep!

On Saturday we went out to Chadstone to hit up some shops. Since we have brought our coffee machine I am slightly addicted and wont buy a coffee throughout the day haha how bad is that!? I feel like a coffee snob but I have found the best tasting coffee in the Nespresso range and nothing else seems to compare. Which I'm sure my favorite coffee shop isn't happy about.


I've said it before - I love their store!
They give you a complimentary coffee and I just love the layout and design.



In my travels I picked up this new Peony for the bedroom.
Silk flowers are just perfect.


I'm getting exited for the Birthday which is now only 9 days away!
I am still here and still reading blogs and commenting but for now I have nothing to report xx

WELCOME HOME YSL ARTY!

On Friday night I left work a little late and the boyfriend swung past picked me up and we went out for dinner I was feeling way too lazy to cook and plus it was Friday. We went to our trusty local Olando Thai on Bay Street.


I wanted something to eat the minute I walked in the door as I was starving so I asked the boyfriend if he wanted to get some spring rolls to share - he said no and when I asked the waitress if I could take them home if I didn't finish them all, she gave me a weird look. C'mon how was I meant to know they where mini spring rolls!?


You'll be happy to know I ate all of these - and of course with the boyfriends help.
Men always change their minds.

Everyone loves the little black box that arrives from Net-A-Porter and how nice is their packaging? I think I get more excited from the way the box looks rather than what's actually inside.


Bad I know, but the other day at work I was on the Net A Porter website just to see what nice things would catch my attention and of course it was the YSL Arty Ring and I had to add this little baby to my collection.


I was really surprised when our receptionist came through with this little box as it was 1 day later - Now that's fast shipping! 
Sorry about the instagram filter photos.

It was Orthodox Easter on the weekend - So happy Easter to any orthodox readers I have.


I have been giving my hair some loving recently and it's really paid off.
MUK products I find are the best for my hair because its so heavy and sometimes frizzy, the MUK shampoo and Condition which I have blogged about before - really are my favorite, it gives me the best results and I can go nearly 4 days without washing my hair because it feel so soft and smooth. I'll stick with this one fo sure! I know that some of your said you'd try it but did you?

Yesterday I got my wife on and cooked - I didn't follow a recipe because hey who has time for that!? So i walked around the supermarket putting in bits and pieces and walked away $20 later. That's pretty good for soup right? I had herbs - Garlic, Bay Leafs, Ginger, Potato, Celery, Carrot and Spring Onions with Chicken Stock. I think the most expensive item was the organic ginger @ $5.00.


It was actually pretty tasty!
Hope you all had a great weekend.
